MyFsTools - Various Tools for Flight Simulator 2004 (FS9)

MyFsTools are available directly from
within a running Flight Simulator 2004

MyFsTools is a module containing a set of tools that can be accessed
directly from within a running Flight Simulator 2004. Integrated tools are:

The "Locator" window lists
nearby airports, cities, mountains and lakes and guides you to a wanted
place.

One or more locations of interest can be opened in small "Guide"
windows from here. If you open an airport in such a "Guide"
window, an ILS like view is shown for the selected runway.

Downloaded file already contains databases with all airports, NAV aids as well as some
cities and mountains worldwide. Additional databases can be downloaded later
below, but you can create them by yourself easily by freely available geo data
(documentation and conversion program
are included).

The "Map" window shows a moving
map of known locations around the aircraft.

The "Online-Map" window shows
maps and/or satellite images of the area around the aircraft. These pictures
are downloaded from the internet.

The "Tower" window allows you
to save and select your preferred tower view positions. You can also
activate an automatic mode here, so the nearest tower view position is
selected automatically while flying around.

The "Starter" window can be
used to start additional tools and to open documents directly from within
Flight Simulator.

Just unzip downloaded files and
copy all contained files to MyFsTools folder. Please note that it will take some
extra seconds to build an index file when MyFsTools is started for the first
time after adding new database files.

MyFsGoogleEarth is a small webserver that links Flight Simulator with Google
Earth. It adds placemarks at aircraft's current position, at estimated
position one minute ahead and for surrounding AI traffic. It can also provide a
continuous "follow aircraft" view.

MyFsStars increases the number of stars shown at night in Flight
Simulator 2004 and also gives a more realistic view with adjusted brightness
values. Optionally and "just for fun", constellation lines can be
drawn as well.
